Big Blitz Posted November 27, 2021 Author Share Posted November 27, 2021 The variant — which the World Health Organization has named Omicron — has 32 mutations on the spike protein — the most ever recorded and twice as many as the currently dominant Delta strain. Experts fear the changes could make the vaccines 40 per cent less effective in a best-case scenario. This is because so many of the changes on B.1.1.529 are on the virus's spike protein. The current crop of vaccines trigger the body to recognise the version of the spike from older versions of the virus. But because the spike protein looks so different on the new strain, the body's immune system may struggle to recognise it and fight it off. It also includes mutations found on the Delta variant that allow it to spread more easily. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10245769/Botswana-Covid-variant-twice-mutations-Delta-know-far.html But carry on about eradication, or we will just update the vaccines - that's exactly what makes mandates completely worthless. Are we going to need to update our worthless vaccine passports to include "latest variant?" What makes my super double vaxed and boosted status so special if I have the Botswana Variant that's resistant to it? And even if this is just overblown hype (sure doesn't sound like it) they are using it to exert more power and control and forever mitigation right now. Check that, they've been doing this for 2 full years now (close enough). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know jack squat about how this spreads, how the vaccine protects against it, or how severe its infection is yet. We will shortly but calm down child. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irv Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Demented Biden continues to botch COVID response. Killing people off left and right with absolutely no plan. Too busy playing pretend with the presidency and pushing communist politics to care about the average American. Now I read he’s WAITING to impose travel restrictions on travelers from South Africa until Monday. What an idiot! What a mess!

Big Blitz Posted November 27, 2021 Author Share Posted November 27, 2021 Pfizer said an updated version of its COVID-19 vaccine will be 'ready in 100 days' if the new Omicron variant is resistant to its current vaccine https://www.businessinsider.com/pfizer-vaccine-update-100-days-omicron-variant-resistant-2021-11 K. Cool. No surprise since this is all planned. We knew you guys would have something up your sleeve! So say I want to wait 100 days or so bc the current vaccine isn't as effective and I can't bring myself to nor even be allowed to get 4 shots in 12 months. I mean, they won't let me go anywhere while I wait for an effective vaxxxx!!! Makes all these protocols and mandates seem completely pointless and ridiculous 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 11 minutes ago, SCBills said: Blue state Governors when they hear about a new variant… More fear porn. In Europe where full panic mode in in affect, the PM of Belgium has stated its "three times as infectious" while suggesting it should be called COVID-21. Even though there's no science around that irresponsible quantification of potential transmission rate. Meanwhile South Africa’s medical chief Dr. Angelique Coetzee, described world wide responses as a “storm in a teacup.” Coetzee stated South Africa has only recorded “very very mild cases” of the variant so far. Guaranteed you won't hear anyone in the parade of experts on any of the network shows today quoted her. Basic virus 101 says when viruses mutate over time they become more infectious and less lethal. There's no reason to suggest COVID is any different until the evidence and facts say otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted November 28, 2021 Author Share Posted November 28, 2021 Fauci says 'we're going to have to start living with COVID' Chief White House medical adviser Anthony Fauci said in an interview aired on Sunday that he believes people will have to begin "living with COVID," expressing doubts that the virus will be eradicated. Speaking to host Margaret Brennan on CBS's "Face the Nation," Fauci touched on previous remarks in which he said he would like to see daily infections fall below 10,000 in order for the U.S. to be able to "live with COVID." Brennan noted that current COVID-19 infection rates are now approaching 80,000 per day. https://thehill.com/homenews/sunday-talk-shows/583269-fauci-were-going-to-have-to-start-living-with-covid Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha That's never Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rand Paul is on record saying that he has information suggesting that the mutations appear to be evolving naturally, but in fact, have been engineered to look that way- and to continue on indefinitely... If this is true, then this whole thing is a charade, designed for psychological manipulation, and sinister global authoritarian control...stay tuned... Welcome to the rebellion...
